animation film made by Lye Len 1936
I do not own the copyright of this video
however I do not make people pay to see this video.
Lye Len would want this video available for all to see... projected on the web. so if one does project or view the video, one is required to do the same.
for those who pretend to withhold the intellectual or monetary property of this content, I reckon I would only obey to the actual creator of this work... ∞

@emmalemmadiification Lucky you! He's such fun- have you checked out "N or NW" yet? To me its a very cute and stylish film, and shows that he could work just as innovatively with live action, too, and heavily influenced by Man Ray. You say he's inspirational- thats exactly the right word for him! Cheers, Mark.

@phaasch I'm a photography student and I was introduced to his work today at my lecture. I think he's really inspirational and deserves more recognition than he gets.

How come only students of film and animation will have heard of this man?? he was a genius and deserves true recognition. More so the organisations who comissioned him- youd think the Post Office would be so staid and conservative, and yet they seem to have been at the forefront of film creativity in the 1930s (these films, Night Mail, etc). Just as striking as the day it was made.

This is great! And very avant garde yes. I was watching 'Metropolis' lately (1927) and you can see that the amazing architectural scenes with machines flying around must have influenced our 'modern' makers of sci-fi films. It's all been done before!

so far ahead of his time. Watch this while listing to modern music. You would never thing it was made 74 years ago. Super rad!
